Trump 50-Year Mortgage Plan Explained: Real Payment Math, 30-Year vs 50-Year Interest, and Crypto Market Impact (BTC, ETH) | 2025 Update

According to @cryptorover, President Trump announced a 50-year U.S. mortgage option and claimed that on a USD 400,000 loan at 6 percent, total interest would be USD 432,000 for 30 years and USD 864,000 for 50 years; source: @cryptorover on X. Using standard amortization, the estimated totals are about USD 463,280 in interest for 30 years and about USD 863,156 for 50 years, with monthly payments near USD 2,398 and USD 2,105 respectively; source: Consumer Financial Protection Bureau mortgage amortization methodology. This implies the 50-year term reduces the monthly payment by roughly 12 percent versus a 30-year at the same rate but raises lifetime interest to about 1.86 times the 30-year total, not double; source: Consumer Financial Protection Bureau calculation methodology. For traders, lower monthly debt service can support household cash flow and risk appetite, and BTC and ETH have shown stronger correlation with risk assets during liquidity-driven moves; source: IMF Global Financial Stability analysis on rising crypto–equity correlations. Monitor for official policy documents or lender adoption before trading the headline, as the source post does not include a government directive; source: @cryptorover on X.

Charlie Bilello’s 5-point housing affordability plan and the trading impact on mortgage rates, homebuilder stocks, REITs, MBS, and crypto BTC ETH

According to @charliebilello, the five ways to restore US housing affordability are to stop money printing, end Fed interest rate suppression and MBS purchases, wind down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, impose a 50 percent sales tax on foreign and corporate buyers, and sell unused government land for new home development, as outlined in his post and video. source: @charliebilello on X and YouTube Historical evidence shows that scaling back Fed large-scale asset purchases lifts term premiums and MBS yields, raising mortgage rates and pressuring home prices and homebuilder and REIT equities. source: Federal Reserve Bank of New York Liberty Street Economics 2011; Federal Reserve Board staff 2018 Reducing or removing GSE guarantees would widen mortgage spreads and increase borrower costs, with implications for MBS ETFs such as MBB and mortgage REITs like NLY and AGNC. source: Congressional Budget Office 2018 GSE options report; Federal Housing Finance Agency 2023 annual data A punitive tax on foreign and institutional buyers would curb investor demand, which has comprised a notable share of transactions in recent years, potentially easing price momentum. source: National Association of Realtors 2023 Profile of International Transactions; Redfin Research 2024 investor homebuying report Increasing buildable land supply tends to moderate prices and rents over time, which feeds into lower CPI shelter inflation that influences Fed policy and Treasury yields. source: Congressional Research Service 2022 Federal Land Ownership overview; Glaeser and Gyourko 2018 housing supply research; U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics 2024 CPI shelter methodology For crypto positioning, tighter liquidity and higher real yields have coincided with weaker BTC and ETH performance while supporting the dollar and front-end rates, underscoring cross-asset downside risk if these tightening measures were enacted. source: International Monetary Fund 2022 blog on crypto and equities comovement; Bank for International Settlements 2022–2023 analyses on crypto and risk appetite
